Skipton have launched an Issue 2 of their Member Bonus Saver, paying 5% including a 2.2% bonus for 12 months. Open to those who were Skipton members on or before 2/6/25.

It doesn’t seem to allow internal transfers, though I didn’t spot a restriction to that effect on the product page. Have paid in via Debit Card and hopefully once there is a cleared balance (the account shows as paying 2.8% - the non-bonus rate until funds clear, as happened with the previous version in 2024) this will be possible.

Edit to add: Min £1, Max £5,000 - so better than Issue 1 which was capped at £3,000 if I recall correctly.

Opened and managed an internal transfer via browser login 👍🏻

Also from the terms:

• You can only hold one Member Bonus Saver in your name at any one time (either a Member Bonus Saver or Branch Member Bonus Saver).

So presumably only one of any issue too.

Is it permitted to have this account as well as the one linked to the base rate?

I have both, haven't seen any prohibition.

Yes, you can have this, along with the Member Regular saver.

Mine's showing 5% but I transfered a quid into there from another account.

Suspect you'll show the unboosted rate until your DC deposit clears in 2-3 days.

That was also my thought so I've just did a £10 FP transfer.

Impressed that COP recognised straight away unlike other Building Societies.

I gave up with Cahoot. Their OTP is a combination of letters and numerals which I couldn't copy and paste. Also no sign of biometrics option.
